Clearly you've not been in a job search and can compare the software job market in 2016-2021 vs now. The market is not 'hot'. Warm, maybe. Lukewarm, definitely.
I don't believe in anecdotes. I believe in data. According to the BLS, "Computing infrastructure providers, data processing, web hosting, and related services" sector added 6000 jobs last month and > 30k jobs in the past year. Unemployment among educated professionals stands at 2.2% which is ridiculous.

- low unemployment + high employer demand for new positions + high wage growth = hot job market
- low unemployment + low employer demand for new positions + low wage growth = lukewarm job market - low unemployment + medium employer demand for new positions + low wage growth = warm job market
